I really wanted to use crashplan, but after two attempted installations, followed immediately by two trojan virus infestations, I gave up.

The crashplan install and exes themselves don’t appear to be infected, but I’m guessing something about their application opens a door for infection.

I’ve emailed the company and they’re looking into it, but after the same result two times in a row, I won’t be trying again.

Just something to be aware of.

I do believe I’m going to look at truesafe and cucku though. Thanks!
